Digit Starts Spamming Its Members...

[naveen_reloaded]

Hi guys..


I was recently getting many emails from thinkdigit domain...

I dont kow whether its them or their database has been compromised..

I think the emails are no longer safe with thinkdigit

today i got a email ...take a look and the links to these products where something different which i have marked ( arrow ) below!




Please post your comments....


ADMINS/ MODS its time you guys come out from the cave and reply here..

is oour emails / privacy safe here ?

its time ALL BUGS ON THIS FORUM GET SOLVED !!


ITS TIME...

how long have we been having the " quick reply " error //


and to mods ... stop moving this thread to feedback ... no one cares there and no one has taken any step in resolving the issue..

we are frequented my database errors , offline , and now spamming ?


we want answers from admins ..

Mods if u can contact them , please do it and ask them to resolve these issues..


we want answers from them , once and for all

[alexanderthegreat]

I recieved one too! In fact, I've been recieving too many these days. I had to create a filter to stop this incessant spam. Bu I doubt if any admin (except Raabo, the editor) can do something about it. The other admins are just forum admins. Err, right?

[saqib_khan]

YEah, me too got that mail. STOP DOING THIS DIGIT. WE DON'T WANT ADVT....

[Disc_Junkie]

What happened to the avatars!!

[naveen_reloaded]

i think mods are the only ones who can contact them...

now its the time mods..

please stop all these bugs and spamming ... and get teh admins ... here

[naveen_reloaded]

wow..

i didnt see .it ..

where is my damn avatar ???

[Kl@w-24]

I have already received 3 mails like this. I had created a filter to dump any mail mentioning eBay into the archives. I didn't bother to check who the sender was. After reading this, I'm frankly disgusted with this. When the mail is being sent from the thinkdigit domain, why are they masquerading as eBay.in?

[Disc_Junkie]

I can see my avatar but can't see your's!!? Now avatar bug has also crept in...

[naveen_reloaded]

actually see the links at he bottom left ..

they are not ebay.in even...

i think they are hackers... look at those links...

i think thinkdigit is compromised to a large extent..

thinkdigit has got some 50K + emails in its database...

i dont know wht it might lead to ...

damn you thinkdigit...

now all those poor noobs , who think its legitimate will fall for this scam

What makes you think we are the only one who can contact them? You yourselves can very well contact them. Please don't involve us in this as we have nothing to do with it. I got the very same email, and i noticed the @thinkdigit.com email address too! NOT cool digit

[naveen_reloaded]

The problem is, that we cannot help you in such issues! You think we are in regular contact with the admins? No we are not!! Sometimes admins are present on the IRC, that is the ONLY time we interact with them!

[naveen_reloaded]

its not from ebay its from thinkdigit domain...

could be spooked email .. but still cant rule out that thinkdigit is compromised...

[Hitboxx]

Why don't you pm an admin with a link to this thread naveen? Only they can actually say what's all this.

[naveen_reloaded]

guys i dont know admins email Id , if you have please give it..

i will be glad to send them a email..

i ready to go great lengths to restore this forum.. u know it.. everyone knows it..

lets join hands and do it instead of point ing fingers..

[Coool]

[naveen_reloaded]

thnkss cooool



quick reply fixed ????

[The Conqueror]

Yeah I think so it has been fixed..

[Sukhdeep Singh]

I dont know why people point fingers at Mods ???

Come on, they dont sit with Digit at their office and have communication whole day via Phone and Emails....

Most of the problems with the forum are related to Bugged vBulletin Script and Server Settings which *only and only* Admins can fix and no one else.

Mods can only keep check Spams and Abuse and other such things which are against the rules

[naveen_reloaded]

i am not saying they are sitting and chatting with admins..

more than regular members , mods are the next persons who have a direct contact to admins..

this is how it works in thousand of forums...

also i am saying , just stop poingint fingers at othes..

i have pm`d and email the admins..

interested members also please do and lets show our disgust..

[The Conqueror]

Yes,I agree with you Sukhdeep Singh,but the thing is since ThinkDigit has been acquired by 9dotnine, I feel that the admins aren't active as they used to be before..Where are the New Admins of 9dotnine or where have the old admins gone? I know they are working hard and it's not so easy to manage such a big forum but then look many good members are leaving only because of their negligence...First it was the change of our classic Kirsch Theme into this red theme....then we were somewhat adjusted to it ...soon comes more bugs, more spammers...but this last week reached its height !
I Hope that the Admins take care into this issue and solve this at the earliest...

Regards,
The Conqueror

[naveen_reloaded]

anyone interested in emailing to the parent company can do : info@9dot9.in


hope you get a good reply..

guys one thing you have to remmber... mods are the middle man between members and admin.. atleat his is how it works in other forum and i feel that in the absence of admins , they are the highest rank we can seek help ..

i too know that they cant solve the issue , since it needs a CPanle access or whtever to upgrade the vbulletin..

but all i am saying is , when they were eleceted to mods , admins would surely have contacted them and would surely have had talks ... more than a regular member..

but lets stop this mod thning and get to the topic..

please stay to the topic or else the thread will loose its identity... and become another b!tching others thread"

did other too get the email ?

[rhitwick]

Why don't you mail to the editor directly?
U mailed to Raaboo, I guess u used editor [at] thinkdigit.com id.

[NucleusKore]

I received the same email and I think it is legitimate. See for yourself. This is what I did:

Right clicked on the ebay.in image and copy link location. All other links in that mail point to the same address, which is, in my case http://aghreni.cust-mta.com/re?l=3b3u4uIyazipkI2

Looks like some referral agency?

Paste this link in a webproxy, I used proxysmurf.com

I was redirected to ebay whose url was https://scgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?RegisterEnterInfo

ebay.in is a legitimate domain, unless you say that too is compromised

[naveen_reloaded]

i think ebay has some refferal system for thier products and ebay emails doesnt have any refferal system..

surely all these referrals links will lead to the parent site...

@rhitwick , thnks for replying , but instead of pointing me to email , why dont you do it ?

and guys lets do our share ,, i will email to the ID , but please also do your parts ... you too email it...
